Recent excavations at Dymenion, neai

prehistoric tomb, an event that has excited
considerable interest in scientific cirles. The
search began several weeks ago, when the
commissioner OF the Archaeological Society al
Athens proceeded to Dymenion to ascertain
whether the antiquities thus found were au-
thentic. Nothing ofncial has yet been pub
hshed, but 1t now appears certain that the
tomb itself dates from the Homeric period.

A Curious Old Custom.

1t used to be the custom many years
ago in old Esopus, now Kingston, for all
thrifty DANES to prepare grave clothes"
for the different members of the family.
With the growth of a child the old grave
clothes would be discarded-perhaps
given to an improvident or shiftless neigh
Dor to be used in time of need-and new
garments would be promptly made to re-
place the old A story is told about
relative of the late Judge WestbrOOk, OF
Kingston City. Mrs. IS grave clothes
had been laid carefully away for many a
long day. When grown yellow or mussed
looking the old lady would do them up
fresh, y" with her own hands and u feeling
of blissful readiness and security would
again be hers. One day ncighbor called
on the old lady, and the latter was found
to be greatly perturbed over something.
Guess you'd be clustered, too" said the
excited dame, ''if somebody came and
borrowed your grave clothes, just after
they'd all been done up fresh That shift
less Miss - / knew she wouldn't have
anything fit to wear when she came to
die; and, sure enough, it was borrow,
borrow, even after her death. Such shift
lessness l never could endured Now I've
got to go to work and make up another
set, or | may be catched in the same box. :"
The old lady, who was then past 30, went
promptly to work and had fresh grave
clothes made up, and it is asserted on
peood authority that she lived only few
hours after their Inpletion.-Kingston

AZ the daughter of the late Senator
Benton, Mrs. Fremont's opportunities to
observe and remember date back as far as
the presidency of Gen. Jackson. When
Old Hickory and Old Bullion had their
talks at the White House, the president
liked to have the senator from Missouri
bring his little daughter Jessie, and Mrs.
Fremont speaks of these visits with q
sweet, tender and delicious simplicity.
They We're accustomed to find the presi-
dent in an upper room, ''where the tall
south windows sent in strong breadths Of
sunshine, but his big rocking chair was
always drawn close to the large wood
fire" AS Jackson talked with the child :
father he would keep her by him, his hand
ON her head. Sometimes Mrs. Ere
mont writes, forgetting me, in the inter
est of discussion, his long, bony fingers
took an unconscious grip" but she had
been trained not To vince show pain
even IL Gen. Jackson twisted her curls q
little too vigorously. This description Of
the stern old soldier-president, seated In o
rude old fashioned rocking chair in the
White House, with the child by him,
while he discussed men and affairs with
the Missouri senator, brief as it Is, is .

To Impress Constituents.

1t Is estimated by the clerks who
handle them that more than 1900 meas
ures have been introduced in the house
since it became evident to any wideawake
member that there was not the least hope
Of action by both houses, and that the
measures would die, and that one-half Of
these, the authors well knew, would never
be acted upon by either house. Even at
this Late day u call of the house will result
in the introduction of from 100 to 800 bills
when committee meetings, with very few
exceptions, have been suspended, and it is
improbable, not To say impossible, that
any of them VIII receive attention. Asked
why this was SO, an old member said: ''It
Is to satisfy the constituency. Why,
have often received requests from con-
stituents during the last month i'm n con-
gress to introduce u bill, and when told
them that there was not the least possible
chance of consideration they urged that
introduce it anyway. i have had con-
stituents insist that l introduce "a bill on
the very Inst day of a session, and il I did
not do IL they would work against me- -

The Preservation of Egxs-

Australian eggs are preserved in the
following simple manner: The vessels in
which the eggs are to be placed are glass
jars with patent shoppers, vulcanized India
rubber joints making them perfectly air
tight As soon as the eggs have beep col
lected the jars are stood in hot water for
some time and left until the air in them
has become thoroughly warm and rarified-
The jars having been heated, the eggs are
wrapped up in paper to prevent them
knocking together and placed in the warm
receptacle, their pointed ends being upper
most. The jars are Immediately closed
up, and then, and not until then, are re-
moved from the hot water. Ii is said that
il this process Is skillfully carried out the
eggs viii he as Mt for the breakfast table
as the day they were laid many months
after they were put in the jars. The great
secret of success In carrying ont this
method is no doubt To thoroughly heat the
air i'm the jars The eggs will stand a
better chance OF keeping II the paper in
which they are packed j. previously baked
and used warm Patent stoppered Jars
are not absolutely necessary, any stopper

A DOMESTIC iDYL.

After the baby came how changed the place!
The old man frightened wthsa newer grace.
The roses grew more thickly round the door,
And softer were the sunbeams ON the floor,
Full sweeter was the song of every bird
From that glad day his little voice was heard
Growing and cooling in such queer delight
But there was more walking done at night,
After the baby came.
